Summarized Group Cash Flow Statement

Eni’s Summarized Group Cash Flow Statement derives from the statutory statement of cash flows. It enables investors to understand the connection existing between changes in cash and cash equivalents (deriving from the statutory cash flows statement) and in net borrowings (deriving from the summarized cash flow statement) that occurred in the reporting period. The measure which links the two statements is represented by the free cash flow which is calculated as difference between the cash flow generated from operations and the net cash used in investing activities. Starting from free cash flow it is possible to determine either: (i) changes in cash and cash equivalents for the period by adding/deducting cash flows relating to financing debts/receivables (issuance/repayment of debt and receivables related to financing activities), shareholders’ equity (dividends paid, net repurchase of own shares, capital issuance) and the effect of changes in consolidation and of exchange rate differences; and (ii) change in net borrowings for the period by adding/deducting cash flows relating to shareholders’ equity and the effect of changes in consolidation and of exchange rate differences. The free cash flow is a non-GAAP measure of financial performance.

(b)

This item includes investments in certain financial instruments not related to operations (securities, escrow accounts) to absorb temporary surpluses of cash or as a part of our ordinary management of financing activities. Due to their nature and the circumstance that they are very liquid, these financial instruments are netted against finance debt in determining net borrowings.

Cash flows of financial investments not related to operation

(3,983)

(3,900)

Net cash provided by operating activities (€10,969 million) and proceeds from disposals of €6,360 million funded cash outflows relating to capital expenditure totalling €12,750 million and investments (€317 million) and dividend payments and other changes amounting to €4,231 million (of which €1,993 million relating to 2013 interim dividend) also repaying down the Group net debt by €83 million from December 31, 2012. Net cash provided by operating activities was positively influenced by higher receivables due beyond the end of the reporting period, being transferred to financing institutions compared to the amount transferred at the end of the previous reporting period (up €552 million; from €2,203 million as of December 31, 2012 to €2,755 million as of December 31, 2013). Cash from disposals largely related to the sale of the 28.57% stake in Eni East Africa, currently retaining an interest of 70% in the Area 4 mineral property in Mozambique to China National Petroleum Corporation (€3,386 million), the divestment of the 11.69% interest in the share capital of Snam (€1,459 million), the 8.19% interest in the share capital of Galp (€830 million) and marginal assets in the Exploration & Production Division.

In 2013, capital expenditure amounted to €12,750 million (€12,761 million 2012) relating mainly to:

  • development activities deployed mainly in Norway, the United States, Angola, Congo, Italy, Nigeria, Kazakhstan, Egypt and the UK and exploratory activities of which 98% was spent outside Italy, primarily in Mozambique, Norway, Congo, Togo, Nigeria, the United States and Angola as well as acquisition of new licenses in the Republic of Cyprus and in Vietnam;
  • upgrading of the fleet used in the Engineering & Construction Division (€902 million);
